PAGE EIGHT HERALD AND NEWS. KLAMATH FALLS. OREGON Fobrunry 27. 1048 Here's Another Step for G a rdeners - Fertilizer Most Important in Planting That Essen tial Victory Vegetable Plot By MARGARET LAMB In lecture recently given to Portland Victory gardeners, Professor A. G. B. Bouquet discussed the use of barnyard fer tilizer. It is always excellent and this year when other kinds are .' scarce, It is especially valuable. It is not wise to spread it too early in the spring or In the fall as many do but put it in a pile and add some superphosphate and let it stay there until the soil is ready to work then spade or plow it in. If spread too early when the ground is still too wet much of the substance leaches away and is lost. If you can get only a little of this kind of fertilizer it Is just that much better than none at all and perhaps some of the Vic tory garden fertilizer that will be on the market can be add ed little later as has been described in a previous story ' of this series. Oregon State college at Corvallis is printing a bulle- tin for gardeners, No. 614 which probably will exceed , all records in distribution be . cause it will be placed in : every home where there is a - InnA oarIon rtf anv Vinri. ; , Again the value of tomatoes must be emphasized, don't wait too long to get your buy plants speak to your dealer soon. There are enough seeds of all kinds but the de mand has been so enormous that a little later all kinds may not be on the shelves. Town -and city gardeners must not forget that their gardens have to be watered and cared for regularly. They should be sure that there is , a way to reach all parts with a sprinkling system or ditch es. It is very foolish to neg lect .this important part of the production of food stuffs and thus waste-the '.work, seeds and fertilizer that have , already been used. Then again if there is plenty of moisture and a little of the booster so- . lution described before two ' crops can be raised with only a little more labor and dou- . ble the value of the ' land. This is to be seriously, consid ered by city gardeners who have only a few square yards to plant. v -, ... - ... ; . i The preparation of .soil and v.1an4in0 nf .Aaila H a m how. pretty thoroughly discussed, nnur enmnt tVie irrfenttntv nil tivation and other upkeep that has to go on throughout the season. Professor Bouquet ; barked back to the proper planting of seeds, not this time so much to save waste of precious seeds, but to save work in the upkeep. , Even when the seeds are planted as they should be, which is much thinner than most ' gardeners think, there ' will be plenty of thinning to do, but do spare yourself the : unnecessary work by plant ing the right amount of seeds in the first place. The cales thenics of gardening include plenty of kneeling on the prayer bones and bending the back but don't over do it be cause you planted too -many seeds to begin with. ' There Is nothing that will take the place of a good seed bed and no amount of scratch ing the surface and fussing around will help if the seed bed has not been carefully prepared. The burden of soil cultivation should be . done before the seeds are ever put in the ground. When the seeds are in then cultivate for a definite purpose. To remove weeds or to correct the ero sion of water are the only-' reasons for stirring the soil after the seeds are establish ed. There are several kinds of hoes that can be used ac cording to the preference of the gardener but the cultiva tion should be gentle and not too deep. The plowing and working of the soil has al ready been done 'and only ; two or, at the most, four inches of soil should be stir red in hoeing. If one goes deeper the fone feeder roots will be disturbed and great damage done to the plants. Rainfall is something un- ' predictable and entirely out side the control of the plant er. For instance last year one of the most wonderful, crops of tomatoes was harvested because there were long fall weeks of low ' h u m i d 1 1 y, whereas the year before there were heavy rains in' August and September and both to matoes and potatoes suffered from blight. Irrigation is something else and is definitely within the control of the gardener. In the next of this series various methods of irrigation will be discussed, ... .
